Attached is a very untested patch (but hey, it compiles, so it must work,
right?) against 2.4.14-pre2, that makes the batching be a high/low
watermark thing instead. It actually simplified the code, but that is, of
course, assuming that it works at all ;)
(If I got the comparisons wrong, of if I update the counts wrong, your IO
queue will probably stop cold. So be careful. The code is obvious
enough, but typos and thinkos happen).
